Multicopper oxidases are a multi-domain family of enzymes that able to couple oxidation substrates with reduction dioxygen water. These capable oxidizing vast range substrates, varying from aromatic inorganic compounds such as metals. This metallo-oxidase activity observed in several members this has been linked mechanisms homeostasis different organisms. Recently, periplasmic multicopper oxidase, encoded by Campylobacter jejuni, characterised and associated copper the protection against...
Abstract BACKGROUND: In this study, two different laccases were used in combination with various mediators as biobleaching agents a TCF sequence for flax fibre and pulp. Thus, non‐commercial laccase from Pycnoporus cinnabarinus (PcL) was the synthetic mediator violuric acid (VA) or natural syringaldehyde (SA), commercial Myceliophthora thermophila (MtL) methyl syringate (MS). Each laccase–mediator treatment following bleaching sequence: LQPo (Q denoting chelating stage Po pressurized...
Laccases in combination with various chemical compounds have been tested a view to obtain environmental friendly, high-value paper products from unbleached flax pulp, which is currently being assessed as raw material for biotechnological innovation. With the aim of better understanding effects violuric acid (VA) and p-coumaric (PCA) on changes composition two major fiber types it contains were assessed. Following classification, initial pulp was split into fractions according size, namely:...
A search for extremophile enzymes from ancient volcanic soils in El Hierro Island (Canary Islands, Spain) allowed isolation of a microbial sporulated strain collection which several enzymatic activities were tested. Isolates obtained after sample cultivation under conditions nutrient contents and temperature. Among the bacterial isolates, supernatants designated JR3 displayed high esterase activity at temperatures ranging 30 to 100°C, suggesting presence least hyper-thermophilic...
